Wow. I'd never even heard of that model before. Very nice. 26'' wheels on a folding bike would be really nice. Those smaller wheels just kill me on rides over just a few miles. For e-bike conversion, I'd recommend shooting for 24'' wheels or bigger since you'll probably have far fewer headaches getting forks wide enough to fit hub motors. Even our kits can fit forks down to about 95mm if you're willing to fiddle with spacer washers and other tricks for a little while. If you find a folding bike with 100mm dropouts you should have no problems with our kit and have many other good kit options too.
